What's your 'dump stat'?

[Liolel]

My druids dump stat is dexterity. He was made in 3.0 and orignally was going to be a shifter. But that idea got changed to a straight druid but the dump stat remained.

I never make melee characaters, so strength is usually low for me.

Having an 8 wisdom is fun.

 

[Thornir Alekeg]

For me usually charisma or wisdom. I tend to use Charisma more often out of habit I think because, lets face it, before 3e it was little more than a dump stat. Ooh, I can have 8 henchmen! And I rarely ever played with DMs who actually used reaction adjustments.

I don't have any particular one I use as "dump" stat. What stats I want high or low vary greatly from one character to the next.

Without any correlation to class, this poll is pretty useless.

 

[diaglo]

everyone knows Comeliness is the dump stat.

it got dumped so much it didn't even make it into some editions.

I think when he asked "What's your dump stat" he meant "What's your dump stat". As in, what is the stat that you--the user of ENWorld--dumped (if you had to pick).

Me, I picked Strength. I get bored whenever I work out. I almost always fight with a rapier and have Weapon Finesse, so no need there. And I work and play in front of a computer or desk--moving a mouse and rolling dice is pretty easy. I just don't have a need for an above average Str.

I wish multiple answers were allowed. I selected Wisdom, but Constitution also tends to get short shrift on my character sheet. It really just depends on the character I'm playing.

Unless I'm playing a Wisdom based spellcaster, Wisdom tends to be my lowest stat. Low will saves suck, but that and skills is all I'm losing by playing a 7 or 8 wisdom character. I tend to have a 13 in Strength and Intelligence, and a 15 in Dex with any character I play... Constitution gets the secondary shaft then, because I refuse to let my charisma be my second lowest stat.
